My basis for that observation is largely the ear-shattering octave-jump at the end; a traumatic awakening that would mark any poor baby for the rest of its life.

Sun, 06 Jan 2013 01:54:12 +0000http://972mag.com/?p=63227#comment-101535Legal ramifications. I think that this law should be abolished:

Section 8 of the Elections Law prohibits entertainment performances at election campaign events, including singing performances.

Second ramification: prosecutors should consider the following plea bargain for Lieberman: 10 years of public service in the form of NOT SINGING. He should wear a bracelet what would alarm police in the case of a violation, and each violation would result in some jail time.

““He spat in the face of the state of Israel,” asserted David Rotem, a member of Parliament with the nationalist Yisrael Beiteinu Party, speaking of Justice Joubran’s actions. Those who object to the Zionist hymn, he said, “can find a state with a more appropriate anthem and move there.”

Shouldn’t murdering of the national anthem suffice to ban someone from running for the Parliament, or at least from any public singing?

I’m glad to have it back as I’ve been wanting to share the clip with friends since the only time I ever heard it. It was so overwhelming I didn’t have the presence of mind to save the link.
